Thought it would be cool to have a thread dedicated to posts exclusively of DATA.ZIP files.

Please if you post your modded data files here a screen shot would be nice as well as release notes containing changes as well as referencing any past assistance that you may have received from previous DATA.ZIPS

A little organization didn't hurt anyone. and it could help us noobs.

 

it was just an :idea:

 

Could have a table of contents, links to the threads. It would let everyone know whats out there.

Which is totally understandable, but it would also have tens of questions that would be answered already in each data.zip perspective thread. So then coders working on the data.zip would now be checking in two or more places to answer questions.

There is already a great thread out and it's very organized. Throughout the contents of the instructions in the link below, Noobs can gather information about the (data.zip).

Gentlemen

 

No Idea is ALL bad ! Here is my suggestion:

 

There are lost of established mods that have been tested and proved. YES? Short of posting a NEW Data.Zip every time someone comes up with a great idea, why not post the great idea instead... If someone comes up with a better way for the same mod then do the software thing and number the mods... remember? 1.0.... 2.0

 

The guys that do all the great work on this forum would have a record of what was done, and if something does not work....... Well then... the code is right there.... in plain english.... well............ script !

 

Here's what I mean :

 

1) The mod ....... Add red light camera ?

2) The applicable code ......... The actual code (for cut & paste)

3) The File & line number it should be entered in

4) The location of the file... Can be included in #3

5) Any further instructions.. What else do I do to make it work ??

 

This could be the main post for the Hacks / Mods
